Details of squamous cell carcinoma skin cancer

 What is squamous cell carcinoma skin cancer ?
Normally, skin cancer squamous cell carcinoma is a type of skin cancer due to exposure to ultraviolet rays of sun damage to the skin and the long-term. Also skin cancer squamous cell carcinoma, and gradually spread, has the ability to diffuse into tissues such as the eye close to the affected area. Not be able to spread to distant parts of the body even if the cancer is treated in time.The only way to make sure the best, whether the growth of skin cancer is to go for a biopsy. The process involves the removal of a small portion of the skin. Then, the pathologist will analyze it under the microscope in the medical room.Please note that this is not a process to remove the cancer biopsy. I work towards the take-off the tip of the cancer by itself.
TYPES OF SKIN CANCER
It tends to heal skin biopsy is performed and in some cases through a cancer grows. However, this does not indicate that the cancer has been completely removed. Here, the cancer is covered with a blanket of skin only. In that case, you can be cancer is not completely removed, it gets deep into the skin and spread to the internal organs of the human body leading to further human deaths.Skin cancer is squamous cell carcinoma is one of the most common forms of skin cancer are known. It is more than 25,000 new cases, all is true that is reported annually in the U.S. alone is shocking. Cancer, squamous cells derived from the upper part of the skin that is most of the time.
All cases of squamous cell carcinoma skin cancer is not serious. If it is early detection and rapid processing, one you can easily survive this disease. If not treated properly, this disease you can prove to be very difficult to become even disfiguring treatment.
Under the skin cancer is squamous cell carcinoma can have several causes. Some of these are as follows.
Frequently, i) is the long exposure to harmful sun rays. As a result of this severe skin damage, and ultimately skin cancer has developed into squamous cell carcinoma.
Performed by ii) Sun damage to the skin is most responsible factor for the development of this type of cancer. Face is exposed to the sun, most are spread to other parts of the body cancer.
Human skin ⅲ) light has a greater risk of developing squamous cell carcinoma skin cancer.
 Already ⅳ), I have been told people who have developed this cancer and to develop more.Chronic exposure to the sun is the main cause of this type of cancer. Tumor, invade the parts of the body like face, neck,  hands, shoulders, arms, back, etc., such as those exposed to more sun. Edge of the ear and the lower lip is more vulnerable to these cancers.
Squamous cell carcinoma skin cancer also, due to the particular type of injury as the site to be exposed to hazardous chemicals, such as arsenic and some scratches, burns, long existing scratches, petroleum by-products, such as X-rays and may develop. Also decrease the immune, is one of the main reasons for the spread of this type of cancer. Detected and treated early to stay away from the possibility of damage and full recovery.
Types of skin cancer:-
And malignant melanoma:-A type of skin cancer, malignant melanoma can (nevus cells) may become cancerous melanocytes to make melanin, to do with color or skin (pigment cells), the cells of the mole. In men aged 60, but occurs most commonly in women in their 70-year-old, it is not often that occurs in middle-aged young people aged 30 to 50 years. The most common site of origin but the soles of the feet, may occur in various parts of the body and face, and nails.

It is said about the cause of malignant melanoma can occur, although it is not yet well understood, from the fact that many developing white race, and are involved in the ultraviolet. I can easily, such as it is believed that the soles of the feet and nails, to a place where you are always inspired, and are also related to stimulus from the outside also. Clinical symptoms of malignant melanoma can be divided into (subtypes) of the four major groups. In some cases, however, can not be classified clearly. 
1.Superficial spreading melanoma
In many cases, it is considered more likely to occur from the cells of moles, it can be anywhere in the body. Disease is common in Caucasian type, in recent years, the Japanese have also increased. Stains can be seen slightly raised, with irregular boundary as well, color is a mixture of shade-like plaques. Many 40-year-old to 50 years old, of tumor growth (cancer) is relatively slow.

2.Lentigo maligna melanoma 

Many elderly people can face and neck, and dorsum of the hand, the boundaries of dark brown mottled pigmentation flat also comes out in irregular color. It is said the probability of slow growth, healing is high.

3.Lentigo melanoma type terminal 

The most common disease in Japanese type occurs claw back and palms, feet and toes of the Lord. In the beginning of blackish-brown stains can be, or become mottled color or darker part. Or ulcers may be able to progress and uplift. You may be able to have vertical black stripes on nails, cracks spread across the nail. Often seen in later 60s, I noticed that there are many from well underway. I It is not uncommon to find in the state of early lesions in the diagnosis of dermoscopy law recently.

4.Nodular melanoma 
Often grow rapidly from the beginning, it occurs anywhere in the body. Generated from small tumor nodules (hard lump), color is black and shades is now concentrated on the whole mixed. It is more common in people aged 40 to 50 years. Melanoma tumor growth (cancer) is fast.

Malignant melanoma, it is said there is a prodrome or symptoms of the early stages of cancer, five characteristics of ABCDE shown below will help in the detection. When referring to these five points, the higher the possibility of malignant melanoma. In addition, as the main feature, changing inflamed ulcer ④, scab-like bleeding or ⑤, sensory ⑥, ⑦ lesion diameter of change in the size of 6 ①, color change ②, changes in the shape ③, as other features mm and useful points greater than that for early detection of malignant melanoma. When usually, be careful to observe, was anxious that a doctor as soon as possible, but I lead to early detection.  
Symptoms of early malignant melanoma:-
    Is asymmetrical forms Asymmetry: A
    Border of irregularities is border irregularity is jagged: B. There is a bleed through of color.
    C: Color variegation color is not uniform. There is a color shading.
    Is greater than or equal to 6 mm diameter is 6 mm Diameter greater than: D
    E: expansion of the size Enlargement or evolution of color change, shape, or symptoms, changes in color and shape, the symptoms 
SYMPTOMS OF SKIN CANCER
 Inspection and diagnosis of malignant melanoma:-

Malignant melanoma, it is necessary to diagnose the overall clinical symptoms dermatologists. If is difficult to diagnose, the pathological examination examined under a microscope to take tissue from the affected area has been carried out, just seen skin biopsy Add the knife directly to malignant melanoma, it is possible to encourage the transition once because it had been, and it is not actively being conducted today. If it is difficult to diagnose from clinical symptoms, the total excision biopsy to remove the entire tumor. There is also a reference to it the value of the tumor marker blood tests and much more. Tumor markers because they increased in fairly advanced stage, I can not say will be useful in early diagnosis, however. In order to examine the transfer of organs, such as lymph nodes and sometimes performed ray image diagnosis X, ultrasound (echo), CT, MRI, such as PET. 
Ultrasound (echocardiography)
    How to shed body ultrasound to examine the state of the body in its repercussions. To predict the thickness is an important indicator of the degree of progression (cancer that occurred first) primary tumor, such as to help locate the lymph node metastasis. 
CT, MRI examination
    Depicts the interior of the body using a line X, CT, examine the extent of the cancer and the surrounding transition prior to treatment. MRI uses a magnetic field. When using a contrast agent may occur allergies. Tell your doctor you need people who have experience of iodine allergy. 
PET
    By injecting radioactive glucose solution, taking the distribution of its incorporation, a check is made to detect the cancer cells throughout the body. 
Staging of malignant melanoma (stage)
In words that indicate the degree of progression of cancer, stage of disease and is used as it is also called English stage. Often, the word "stage" in the description, such as is used. Roman numerals are used, on the stage, in malignant melanoma, it has been classified as stage Ⅰ, stage Ⅱ, stage Ⅲ, stage Ⅳ. The stage is substantially determined by whether the thickness of cancer metastasis to other organs or lymph nodes. Method of treatment is determined by the stage of the disease have been diagnosed.
